Creepy, disturbing, and could've been better

Rating: Null/10 (23 November 2003)

When I decided to rent "28 Days Later..." I was skeptical about watching it because I had heard that it was one of the scariest movies ever made. And I am not a fan of scary movies. Well, when it first came on with the scene with the monkeys, I was frightened. Rabid monkeys are not pleasant to watch! And when they attacked that woman and she started spitting out blood and her eyes turned red, I jumped. The scene where the first zombie tries to attack Jim in the church made me jump. But the movie just went downhill after that. I mean, the zombies were scary and people with red eyes always creep me out, and this movie did give me chills, but it wasn't very scary. In fact, I thought this movie was boring. There were so many scenes that damn near put me to sleep. I liked Cillian Murphy's acting but I just didn't like this movie too much. Some scenes just confused me and I didn't know what the hell was going on. I don't regret watching it but I won't watch it again. This movie didn't make any sense to me. I just didn't like it. The only thing scary in this movie was the black zombie that the soldiers had chained up. He gave me chills. But anyways. Thanks for reading my review.
